Problem
LACKING IN-HOUSE CLOUD EXPERIENCE TO VALIDATE PROPOSED ARCHITECTURE AND MIGRATE ON-PREMISE ENTERPRISE APPLICATION TO AWS CLOUD
The client had a proposed AWS cloud architecture created for them by Amazon. However, they lacked the in-house cloud experience necessary to validate the proposed architecture, make recommended changes and migrate the on-premise application to the cloud.
Solution
KFORCE'S DUE DILIGENCE IN UNDERSTANDING THE PROJECT SCOPE RESULTED IN A MIGRATION TEAM THAT WAS 70% SMALLER THAN COMPETING PROPOSALS
Kforce assessed the client's current on-premise application, proposed architecture, additional business requirements and the desired "go live" date to determine the right team size and roles to build an experienced team of AWS engineers to complete the migration.
Our team reviewed the on-premise application and the proposed AWS architecture, made architectural recommendations and changes, created an AWS migration plan and executed the plan to migrate the client's Enterprise application to the AWS cloud.
Results
KFORCE ASSEMBLED AN EXPERIENCED AWS MIGRATION TEAM THAT SUCCESSFULLY:
• Made several beneficial recommendations to Amazon's proposed architecture
• Migrated the Enterprise Application to the AWS cloud per the migration plan and schedule
• Created CloudFormation Scripts to automate resource provisioning, established a VPC and NAT Gateway, Setup JumpBox, established an ECS cluster to host application containers, Setup RDS, S3 storage, added ElasticSearch and application load balancers
• Increased the applications bandwidth, scalability and performance, which will lead to increased revenue for the client
• Solution is GDPR & CCPA data privacy compliant
